Australia's tour of India 2019

MS succeeding like that, will be jubilation for all true Indian fans, including me. Hope he can truly go out on a high, for all that he has done so far!

I believe it could've been better had it not been for a mediocre and injury prone bowling line-up that we had for Overseas Test Series. He has the best Cricketing brain in this world atleast among the ones who Captained in last 2 decades.
 
I guess Rohit could improve his running between the wickets a bit in the Powerplay overs. In the 7th over against Maxwell he played out a maiden when the bowling wasn't like such that he couldn't have taken a run. This is where players like Kohli, Jason Roy, Johnny Bairstow, Kane Williamson, etc etc are so good at. Those additional 15-20 runs can make a huge difference
 
I feel like Rahul shouldn't be playing at 4 as that is not the place where he belongs. He is purely a top order batsman and even in England in a T20I game he scored a 100 playing at 3. I am happy that we are playing both Kuldeep and Chahal together today
 
Dhawan looks so good today. I was just expecting such an innings from him just somewhere around the corner. Hopefully he can convert this into a big score. This shows how the team management values their big match winners !!!! Good start this for India looks good for a 320+ score[DOUBLEPOST=1552209582][/DOUBLEPOST]I can remember that we were not at our best during the Windies series at hime but in last 2 ODIs we pressed the button and won both matches comprehensively. It can happen even in this series if we get to somewhere around 350-360 today. :yes
 
I think Rahul can bat in the middle order easily. He rotated well today and if he gets going, he’s twice the batsman Rayudu is.
 
Bumrah you beauty!!! What a shot!!! :D

Where did that come from ? :D:D:lol When Bumrah came in I thought that Cummins would get his 6th, then I saw Bumrah goes for it and I was like "Yes he does get his 6th :facepalm" but then I saw it was a six and I burst out of laughter. The Indian dressing room also was doing the same especially Kohli
 
I was a bit disappointed with the final score that India got. We could've easily got 380-390. But anyways, we can still win if we get early wickets. I really don't know what Rahul was trying to do, he wasn't just showing the willingness to get along with it by playing his natural game. He looked uncomfortable at the crease. Something was just creeping into him and stopping him from scoring quicker. And I don't really Vijay Shankar can replace Pandya. He should play in the middle order. Yes he did play well but his game certainly doesn't suit the lower-order

Well well well, India on a roll. What a spell of bowling this is !!!! I am just speechless. :clap:clap
 
Chahal with a break through !!!!!!! Flighted ball absolutely foxed Handscomb, a crucial wicket just when Australia was threatening to take the game away from Inda[DOUBLEPOST=1552231545][/DOUBLEPOST]We are right into this one now
 
I think our three seamers and Kuldeep are our best 4 bowlers and the one's who should play. If a second spinner is necessary, it should be Jadeja because Chahal brings nothing that Jadeja doesn't.

Exactly what I was thinking.

And today is the best example why we want Dhoni in WC over any other keepers. And I do feel crowd is being a bit harsh on Pant by chanting 'Dhoni Dhoni' whenever Pant misses stumping.
 
Kohli is so hard to support. Such a great batsman but he's such a sore loser with his team mates and umpires!
 
I would personally not add Jadeja in the squad agree he is a brilliant fielder but piss poor batter in the limited overs format and just bowls darts when the pitch is flat like today's atleast Chahal flights it a bit so would rather play Chahal if two spinners are needed or Play Shankar alongside Hardik Pandya to fill the 11.
